Finger-style Lessons
I have been watching the beginner finger-style lessons and have been practicing changing from E-minor to other cords. But with the beginner pattern, you don't play any of the fretted notes in E minor, so why do we play E-minor? I think I am missing something simple. Any ideas?

The notes of an E minor chord just happen to be on open strings. You can double some of them on fretted strings as well, so they are included for future practice & reference.
If there's more to it I'm sure Lisa can tell you! Hope this helps. Have fun!
